Music Video

Caleb Folan

A sportsman turned massage therapist wanted a promotional film that didn’t just look good but felt good. Taking cues from Caleb’s personal narrative through interviews and digging deeper into to his story, we used this as a base to craft a film which encompassed him. A script was developed and the visuals were chosen to echo the vibe of Caleb’s intentions and motivations for turning his hands, literally and metaphorically, to massage therapy.

Sajanava

Produced to open Jasdeep Degun’s album launch at the Southbank Centre in London for ‘Anomaly’. Rich, cinematic and emotionally charged Indian classical and contemporary music from the award-winning sitarist.

Night Prayer

Night Prayer picked up WINNER at The Toronto International Film and Video Awards Inc. (TIFVA). “Night Prayer” is from Ajami’s first EP for Noir Music, released September 25, 2015. We wanted the video to provoke and fuel debate, questioning what is deemed acceptable in terms of filming people without their consent. Is it ok if we share it online?

Origins

creative agencies Rabbit Hole and Blackbox mixed oily magnetic fluids with water to create an abstract representation of primordial life in this music video for UK producer Max Cooper. The video was created using ferrofluids – tiny magnetic particles suspended in liquid – which director Tim Dee and his team at Rabbit Hole, together with Blackbox, added to a small tank of water and manipulated using magnets. “We used two types of ferrofluid,” Dee told Dezeen. “One floated and the other sank creating this alien landscape. Magnets of different strengths were used to push and draw the ferrofluid causing it to connect and disrupt the environment.” Because the oil-based ferrofluid wouldn’t mix with the water in the tank, the force of the magnets caused small droplets to form, replicating how the very first biological cells could have evolved.

“Spheres form of one fluid inside the other” Max Cooper explained. “[These are] basic cell-like structures. All living cells today exhibit this same natural property and it’s possible that the first cells arose through the sorts of processes shown in the video.”

Origins is part of a larger project by Cooper called Emergence, a live audio-visual performance that represents various stages of life, from its early beginnings to human existence today.

Frozen Ground

Filmed in the Norwegian mountains, this is the official music video for ilan Bluestone & Giuseppe De Luca’s ‘Frozen Ground’. The first single to be taken from his forthcoming debut artist album, ‘Frozen Ground’ reunites ilan Bluestone with British singer / songwriter Giuseppe De Luca.

Since joining the label in 2014, ilan has been at the forefront of the evolving trance sound. With an ear for hooky instrumentals, organic chords and dance floor minded productions, the likes of ‘Big Ben’, ‘Spheres’ and ’43’ became euphoric moments in DJ sets for the likes of Above & Beyond and Armin Van Buuren. A prolific touring artist, ilan has headlined the Anjunabeats North American tour in 2016 and 2017 as well as joining Above & Beyond at Madison Square Garden and Sydney’s All Phones Arena. The follow up to ilan and Giuseppe’s breakout hit ‘Bigger Than Love’, ‘Frozen Ground’ was debuted during Above & Beyond’s Group Therapy 200 show in a sold out 13,000 capacity Ziggo Dome. For Giuseppe, inspiration for the song came after he joined ilan on stage at EDC, “there’s something about witnessing a sea of people gathered together to feel something that really helps to warp the borders of reality. I had this Brechtian idea of a specific sound, that when heard, would snap the listener out of their everyday veneer and allow them to connect with who they truly are. On Frozen Ground, I feel that sound, forever.”
